Hello, got a 98 gsx basket case I'm putting together and have 2 questions, first I have what appears to be a wideband 02 in the downpipe. The car had a pillar pod gauge setup the one of the three or more former owners removed the gauges. Can anyone identify the sensor? Can I just buy the gauge? Who do I call? Second question, I have a flywheel and puck style clutch that came with car. Am I going to hate this clutch as a daily driver? Thanks! New here any feedback is appreciated.

Seems bosch LSU4.2 sensor. major brand's (such as AEM, PLX etc) older version wideband gauge kit came with that sensor. I guess it is hard to find a new gauge for this sensor but probably easily find used one.
About the clutch, since the disc is sprung probably the engagement wouldn't be that aggressive and pedal wouldn't be very stiff as I assume that is eBay brand's kit.
Hope this helps you.
 
^ +1.

That is your standard Bosch 4.2 17018 (square plug) used on the older model wideband kits like the AEM 30-4100. Sensor is not really worth much without the gauge which would have to be found used. Also, they are not compatible with the innovate gauges, which use the Bosch 4.2 17014.

As for the ebay clutch kit. It will be fine on the streets as long as you slip the clutch a bit more than usual, as the puck discs are extremely aggressive. Pedal pressure will be the same or lighter, since ebay pressure plates are weaker than stock.
 
^^^ correct, just bought a replacement WB sensor for my LC2 Innovate and it was a Bosch 17014....$49 at the parts store.
 
Thanks for the replys! , I'll go ahead and run the clutch and it looks like when I get to the point that I need an A/F gauge I should just get a new complete kit. Correct?
 
That would be best so it is all compatible and gives correct readings.
